Voiceless Grants Program inspires the next generation of changemakers for animals

In 2025, the Voiceless Grants Program continues to inspire and empower a new wave of changemakers dedicated to the protection of animals. Building on the impact of our annual grants giving program in recent years, we are committed to creating a just and equitable world where animals can flourish by supporting and investing in changemakers, visionary organisations and initiatives that reform our social, cultural and political systems. Below are the next generation of changemakers for animals who successfully applied to the Voiceless Grants Program and whom we will partner with in 2025.

LA Wildfire Relief for Animals

Voiceless is deeply moved and saddened by the catastrophic wildfires in Los Angeles and the surrounding areas. The destruction of homes, the shattering of communities, and the upheaval of lives have left us all shaken. Our hearts go out to those facing the daunting task of rebuilding.

This tragedy has also taken a heavy toll on animals—both companion animals and wildlife. In response, our Voiceless emergency grant program has supported the incredible Los Angeles-based organization, Best Friends Animal Society, dedicated to aiding animals during this crisis.

Currently, the dedicated team at Best Friends Animal Society in Los Angeles is actively working on the ground, providing critical rescue and shelter efforts for displaced animals. They are ensuring that these animals are welcomed into temporary foster homes or forever homes. Additionally, they have established a comprehensive pet pantry, fully equipped with food and supplies for current or new pet owners. They also operate the largest animal sanctuary in the USA, based in Utah, to which they are transporting animals to ensure their safety and provide the urgent medical care many need.

We thank them for their relentless work and commitment to responding to urgent calls for help from residents and shelters in affected areas. The animals of LA are deeply in our thoughts, and we hope that by lending a helping hand in this way, we can contribute to rebuilding their lives as well.
